History Anime / DokiDokiPreCure

* GenreSavvy: In Episode 39, [[spoiler: the Cures seem to fall for Bel's disguise as Joe...but then at the last minute they reveal they saw right through him, and for reasons even the viewers would have trouble noticing.]]

* AdultFear: The origin of the BigBad is heavily steeped in this. [[spoiler:A loving father is driven to his limits and ends up unleashing a sealed evil because his only daughter fell dangerously ill. Many parents would understand his choice.]]

** The biggest foreshadowing comes for the climax: in [[UpToEleven every episode]], in regards to the MonsterOfTheWeek (except for the ones Regina forceably darkens), the person the Jikochuu is formed from has a selfish thought/expression of emotion which darkens their heart [[spoiler: and then lessens as they remind themselves to not be so selfish. This [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption doesn't prevent them]] from being the MonsterOfTheWeek, but it definitely hints that despite certain enemy's assurance of ApocalypseAnarchy during the DarkestHour, the residents of their city just need some reminding before they turn around and fight back against cruel and selfish thoughts by helping each other.]]

* AllForNothing: Episode 46. [[spoiler: The King of the Trump Kingdom decides to release SealedEvilInACan in order to find a cure for Marie-Ange's illness (which was implied to come from said sealed evil in the first place). The evil turns the King into King Jikochuu, and Marie-Ange [[LiteralSplitPersonality divides her own existence]] to keep herself from becoming a Jikochuu which essentially renders the King's sacrifice meaningless.]]

** Mana's friends who were protected by the Cures during the Jikochuu's attack in Episode 32 [[spoiler:remember said event in Episode 47. Complete with them recognizing Cure Heart.]] Even before that, Yashima notices them in Episode 36.

* ThankingTheViewer: The last thing viewers see is a pastel frame with the Cures, their [[MentorMascot Mentor Mascots]], and Regina doing exactly this while [[AsideGlance looking directly at said viewers]]. It's even the trope's image.

* MinionShipping: In episode 27 Leva suggests to Gula that they try using a team attack against the Cures, saying that he's curious about Gula's "wild side". Gula blushes and says he likes Leva's top hat. Later in the episode, they summon a Selfish while in a pose that resembles the [[Anime/GGundam Love-Love Tenkyoken]].
